Afes (Auto False Echo Suppression) Wizard - Siemens SITRANS LR560 Operating Instructions Manual

1.2. AFES (Auto False Echo Suppression) Wizard

Notes:
• Before using AFES wizard, configure the device via the Quick Start wizard.
• Make sure material level is below all known obstructions at the moment Auto
False Echo Suppression is used to learn a custom TVT (Time Varying
Threshold). We recommend an empty or almost empty vessel.
• Note the distance to material level when the environment is learned, and set
Auto False Echo Suppression Range to a shorter distance to avoid the material
echo being screened out.
If you have a vessel with known obstructions, we recommend using AFES to prevent
false echo detection.
This feature can also be used if SITRANS LR560 displays a false high level, or the
reading is fluctuating between the correct level and a false high level.
a) Make sure the material level is below all known obstructions.
b) Navigate to Level Meter >
Diagnostics (3.) > Echo Profile (3.1.)
